Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of OXO Good Grips Stainless Food Scale with Pull-Out DisplayCustomer Review: A super scale in a small size Summary: 5 Stars
The Oxo Good Grips Scale is a beautifully designed item that works accurately to measure food portions.
It takes up little space on the counter and measures accurately to fractions of ounces. Once again, Oxo has
come up with a winner. It was a great asset in helping me reach my goal weight on a diet as I no longer had to guess at portion sizes of meat and fish.
I purchased it from Amazon after unsuccessfully looking in local stores for a scale that I liked. My order came quickly, with batteries included and I use it every day. It is an excellent product at a reasonable price.
Customer Review: Fantastic scale Summary: 5 Stars
It's a scale. I weigh pre-measured things and it's dead on. Very scale-like.
Pros:
- My favorite feature is that you can weigh something in ounces and switch the measurement to grams without resetting the weight. My last scale had a shared tare/units button and it made me want to punch dolphins.
- Backlit. Hey, sometimes a man wants to weigh out 43g worth of grapes in the dark. Don't judge.
- It doesn't look stupid in my kitchen.
Cons:
- It wasn't free.
- It wasn't delivered by a hot asian delivery girl in a bikini.
Customer Review: I Love It Summary: 5 Stars
This scale is a holiday gift for my husband. I just got it in the mail and had to try it out. I love it. The ability to light the display screen when needed and the pull out digital display unit make it a unique scale. Well worth the price. Especially for my husband, who rarely uses a measuring cup, but weighs everything on a kitchen scale. He loves to bake. He even has a second cousin from Norway, who is a world class chief. We have an older model scale, by Tanita. While it works fine, it doesn't include any of the features I just mentioned that make this scale the gem that it is.
Customer Review: Excellent Kitchen Food Scale Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent Kitchen Food Scale, great size that doesn't take up much counter space, fits in with the decor, and so easy to clean. My husband liked the fact that you can put a bowl on the scale before turning it on and it comes up 0 when turned on, you then add your food to the bowl or plate. We buy Boars Black Forest ham from the deli for lunch meat so guessing how many oz's=slices or an oz of cheese was always a hit and miss. Being able to detach the reading mechanism is helpful too, but we hardly ever detach it as it's set in a well lit place that's easy to read.
Customer Review: Beautiful and functional Summary: 5 Stars
Love it - I use scales quite a bit for weighing my food for portion control, but I always keep the scale in the cabinet becuase they're bulky and don't look very good on the counter. This one is very slim, I love the stainless which matches my kitchen decor, and fits neatly between the microwave and fridge. Big easy to read numbers, light up display, and the face of it pulls out to read when I weigh on a plate. I can zero it out so I can just add an ingredient, zero it, add another ingredient, zero it...you get the picture. I love it, worth every penny.
